My gpg key has expired on me, so I took a bit of extra time and read up
on the key management according to the gnupg people[0]. I've generated a
key that will never expire as my primary key and limited it only to
signing. I've generated a subkey that will expire in 1 year and is only
used for encryption. According to [0] that's the best way to go, as you
can accumulate signatures, but it's better to change out your encryption
key occasionally. Having your primary key as the key that gets swapped
out is somewhat of a pain to update for all the people that know you.
And with subkeys, it happens automagically. So, please disable my old
key: 0C47307B as it expired yesterday :)

new key is: 70EB739B
Fingerprint:

98EC 7077 CB97 00A1 F2E7 3834 C9DF FAF4 70EB 739B

The key is available from pgp.mit.edu

Thanks :)

Don't forget to add your key to http://www.sourcemage.org/keysigning.
;)

I should probably also do this as I've been using my current key for
encryption for a while now. :(

Also, http://www.sourcemage.org/keysigning should be updated with
instructions for making an sha512 key and David's note above. Any
objections?
